First on the agenda is Soekarno-Hatta International Airport (CGK), with plans to expand into other Indonesian airports over the next years. 

“Indonesia’s expanding tourism economy, coupled with the fast-growing e-commerce market, further strengthens the already promising growth outlook for passenger services and the cargo logistics market in the country,” dnata noted. 

The Dubai-based ground handler operates at 13 airports in the Asia-Pacific region, delivering reliable ground handling, cargo and catering services to over 80 airlines.
